Chapter 70 Longevity Village

The food was served quickly, and Gu Ci said, "Eat."

The men didn't move.

Tang Zhao turned his head and gave him a smug smile, "Let's eat!"

"Yes!" The men picked up their bowls and chopsticks and accurately picked up the slices of braised mutton and pork in the middle.

Tang Zhao also picked up a piece and tasted it. The taste was slightly familiar.

Gu Ci nodded. It was familiar, but the taste was a little worse than the one made by the girl named Xia Mo.

Tang Zhao swallowed the mutton in his mouth and asked, "Boss, is this braised mutton made by your family?"

There was no one else in the store, and the boss was happy to talk to the big customer, "How could my wife make such a good thing?"

"I bought this from a newly opened tofu shop in Lanzhou City. I waited in line for half a month before I finally got it."

The one-eyed man ate the braised mutton and asked, "Why don't you buy more?"

"I want to buy more, but the tofu shop has a limit! Each shop can only buy 30 kilograms a day, and they won't sell more than one or two kilograms."

"Did the owner of that tofu shop get kicked in the head by a donkey? Why not sell it if there's money to be made?"

Tang Zhao who was kicked by a donkey: If you want to curse someone, please do it behind the person’s back, thank you.

"We're short-staffed. The tofu shop can only braise 200 kilograms a day, and that's only after the people blocked the door several times. We braised 100 kilograms just one day ago, and before we even start selling, every cup of tea has been reserved by the big restaurants."

"Big restaurants also order it? Don't they make it themselves?"

"Why wouldn't I want to make it myself? I heard the chef at Zuixianlou worked tirelessly for half a month, but he still couldn't figure out all the ingredients in the marinade. No matter how he made it, it tasted wrong. Customers who had tried the authentic braised meat at the tofu shop weren't sold on it. In the end, Zuixianlou had no choice but to send waiters to line up in front of the tofu shop before dawn every day."

The men were envious, "Hey! How much money can this tofu shop make in a day?"

The boss was also envious, "I'm afraid he's making a fortune every day!"

Tang Zhao calmly picked up a piece of pickled cucumber, hmm, sour.

The wine jar in the restaurant was not small, but it was just homemade Shaodaozi, so the alcohol content was not high. Tang Zhao drank several glasses with them without changing his expression, and the men were even more delighted.

Madam, you can drink a lot!
He is rich, generous, straightforward, and doesn't look down on these soldiers. He is much better than that delicate and weak Miss Zhongyong Hou who cries all day long. Well, the general is really blessed.

The quick-talking man was slapped hard on the back of the head by the boss, and fell into the empty plate with a roar.

The one-eyed man smiled shyly and honestly, "He likes to talk nonsense when he drinks too much, please don't blame me, madam."

Tang Zhao nodded. "I heard that drinking vinegar can sober up a hangover. Since this brother has drunk too much, let's give him a bowl of vinegar."

"Boss, please bring me a bowl of vinegar. Make sure you use the largest bowl in the store."

"Coming!"

One-eyed man:
The man who was drunk voluntarily:
He looked at his general for help.

Gu Ci lowered his eyes and ignored him.

The man who voluntarily got drunk picked up a large bowl of vinegar and drank it down in one gulp.

The other men turned their heads away, feeling that the drink was so sour that it would make their teeth ache. If they really drank it, ugh.

After swallowing a large bowl of vinegar, the man felt his stomach churning and wanted to vomit but couldn't bear to, so he had to endure it.

The other men all stayed away from him, fearing that they would be implicated.

Gu Ci put down his chopsticks and said, "Watch your tongue."

The man nodded like a chick pecking at rice.

Tang Zhao paid the bill and gave a large tip before leaving feeling refreshed.

"Where shall we go next?"

The men loaded up their firewood again and warmly invited, "If the young master and his wife don't mind, please stay in the Longevity Village for one night so that we can give you something in return."

Gu Ci tilted his head, and Tang Zhao narrowed his eyes. "Is there a cart in the village?"

"There are three of them. They were specially built to transport grain to the county," said the one-eyed man. "By now, Lao Liang and the others should have sold all their grain and are waiting at the city gate."

"Then let's go and take a look," Tang Zhao said sincerely, "Chapter 71: Longevity Village. It sounds like a good place."

Gu Ci nodded and escorted Tang Zhao to the city gate. Sure enough, another group of people with the same demeanor as the one-eyed man were already waiting there, chatting and looking around. "They're coming," a young man shouted, then asked in confusion, "Who are that man and woman over there?"

Liang Kang squinted his eyes for a long time, and was overjoyed, "It's the general, it's the young master, it's the fifth young master!"

The young master widened his eyes and stared at Gu Ci intently.

Liang Kang came forward with his men, tears welling in his eyes as he said, "Young Master." He then looked to the side and said respectfully, "Greetings, Madam!"

The men behind him shouted in unison, "Greetings, Madam!"

The voice was so loud that even the soldiers on the city wall couldn't help but stick half of their bodies out to look.

"Old Zhao, you're so mean! You didn't even tell us when you saw the young master and his wife, so we could share in the joy!"

"Hehe, I was so happy that I forgot about you for a moment," the one-eyed man Zhao Tian scratched his head, "but the young master and his wife agreed to stay in the longevity village for one night, so we have plenty of time to talk."

Liang Kang laughed, "That would be great!"

Gu Ci: "Zhao Tian will escort Madam back to Changshou Village first. Liang Kang will lead the others to push the cart and follow me."

"Yes!"

At the command, the men who were originally relaxed and leisurely quickly packed up their things and lined up, following Gu Ci and walking quickly and neatly towards the city gate.

Tang Zhao praised it in admiration.

Zhao Tian said respectfully, "Madam, please."

Tang Zhao nodded, and just as he walked out of the city gate, he heard a roar.

Red Ear came running towards us at lightning speed.

Zhao Tian was shocked and stood in front of Tang Zhao, "Madam, be careful!"

Hong Er ran to a place less than five meters in front of the two of them and stopped.

Tang Zhao waved at it.

Hong'er walked around the silly Zhao Tian on all fours and put his horse's head close to Tang Zhao's hands.

Zhao Tian:?
Tang Zhao patted the horse's head, stuffed two pieces of freshly bought peanut candy into the horse's pocket, grabbed the saddle and used the momentum to jump onto the horse's back.

Zhao Tian:
Is he blind, or is this world just a fantasy?

Is this still the Red Eared Horse who was so aloof that he would kick and kick anyone who got close to him?

"Zhao Tian?"

Zhao Tian was dazed, "Huh?"

Tang Zhao raised his chin and said, "Lead the way."

"Oh oh," Zhao Tian reacted and took the lead.

Tang Zhao followed behind on his red-eared horse.

Without Tang Zhao's burden, the group arrived at Chapter 71 Changshou Village in less than an hour.

Tang Zhao sat high on his horse and looked down at the village. It was so big.

The end is as far as the eye can see.

To call it a village is really an understatement.

A group of half-grown children gathered at the entrance of the village to play. When they saw the men coming back, they surrounded them happily. However, when they looked at Tang Zhao, whom they had never seen before, they looked wary and their eyes were full of curiosity.

When the women who were sitting under the ginkgo tree doing needlework heard the sound, they hurried over and saw at a glance the tall and handsome horse and the beautiful woman riding on the horse, who was not like an ordinary person.

The women opened their mouths wide, "Oh my god, where did this fairy come from?"

Tang Zhao:.
"You're too kind, Auntie."

Zhao Tian tugged at his wife's sleeve and said, "Don't talk nonsense. This is the wife of General Huoqi, the Princess Zhaoshan, who was personally appointed by the late Emperor!"

Aunt Zhao felt even more dizzy, with only one thought in her mind: Oh my goodness, I saw the Empress!
Zhao Zhao: I am not a fairy, I am the God of Wealth
